Best Show Car at SEMA?

I'm standing here a couple of hours after the opening of the 2010 SEMA Show in Las Vegas. The mood is definitely more upbeat than last year. This 1961 Mercedes-Benz 190SL is already being tagged as one of the best show cars. It might look like a nicely restored car but it is much more. Under that beautiful body there is the chassis of a 2004 SL600 with a twin turbo V-12 engine. The car known as the Mercedes Bent is owned by Richard Mott and is drawing crowds to the BASF booth. It also has a Renntech performance package just for added fun.
